The way I protect myself might be different from others for we all do things differently.
But always first ask your guides to be there for you to cover you with light and to protect you.
Say a prayer asking for protection and always send out love for that is what you will receive back.
Always ask for the cloak of protection to be around you, this will stop the negative feelings coming into you.
Always remember if you get a spirit that you dont want near you to be blunt and tell them to leave you alone! They will listen and leave.
hope this helps hun
love ya
Mandy
